Things got heated at work when a coworker criticized a woman’s attire. The woman was wearing a top with thin straps and long pants, and her shoulders were showing. Her coworker, who was dressed in short shorts and barefoot, told her that he thought it better of her to dress in “barely any clothes” to work. The woman fired back , telling him that she would start covering up her shoulders when he started wearing shoes to the office. The situation escalated and now she’s wondering if she was wrong to say what she did. Do you think she was out of line? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
